Realization of a Fightpad Wii U on the theme of Hyrule. The shield, which is the main ornament, is made of resin. Hand painted with an "ancient gold" brushed with a metallic effect. The controller is entirely reworked, sculpted and with a patina appearance of bronze, glass of gray (oxide). Straps are thick leather. The directionnal pad is made of metal and the various relief elements are made of ceramic.

Started in January 2016, this project took me a year to be finished. This console holds the record of the longest creation time. Researches, sketches, and trials took almost one third of my planning.

The top of the console has been made with rosewood and the cartdrige port is in cherry wood. Like any living material, it can retract itself and its color can change over the time. I spent many weeks drying the various pieces (sanding, varnishing, sanding...) and to observe its evolution. The various decorations have been made in resin and hand-painted while 80% of the shell has been sculpted. The buttons and cartridge port are in metal. The controller has an oxydized paint and a circular metal plate with a used finish.

A Nintendo 64 based on The Legend of Zelda, Ocarina of time.It's a surprise gift ordered by Mika's girlfriend. He's a huge fan of this licence, just like so many of you, Guys.The ancestral gems being very important items for the main quest, I chose to remind their shape under the console's logo. As a reminder, they are the Kokiri emerald, the Goron ruby and the Zora saphire. The console's logo was also remade in order to stay close to the saga's typography. A little additional wink for this friend to please him.I have already explained the techniques I used in previous publishings, the shield was remolded in resin, for a little bit thinner and angular rendering.The basic model comes from the MetalFGS forge. The gold aspect for the buttons is worn and shiny to match with the rest of the console, that is rather ancestral. At last, the Triforce is remembered on the game pad.

It was completed in 3 months, while working on other projects at the same time.The Materials I used were resin, Double component epoxy paste, acrylic paint and texturizing gel.The console is entirely hand made. Joystick ports were adorned with numbers from 1 to 4, using the Hylian alphabet. The controller’s design was inspired by a sword (that does not necessary mean that it is the Master sword). The Start button is covered by a shield but is fully functional. So are the sticks. First one is more decorative while using brass. The second one is an original item. I always try to keep unchanged something on the console. It is very difficult to customize silicon parts because it is hard to paint on it . You may have noticed the cracks on the right side. lease tell Link that he is not supposed to blow them up.Another detail you may have noticed is the fake leather covering the handle. I will just let you have a closer look at the whole.
